My client library sends Parse/Bind/Describe/Execute/Sync for each query, unless it's using a previously-prepared statement, in which case it can omit the Parse message.
For which statements can I also avoid sending Bind and Describe? As far as I can tell, I can just send Parse/Execute/Sync for any utility statements (i.e. those that are handled by ProcessUtility()) that do not UtilityReturnsTuples(). Furthermore, I can omit Describe for ordinary (i.e. without "returning") INSERT and DELETE and UPDATE. Right? I could also omit Bind for any queries that do not have bind parameters, except that I always want binary-format results; so I suppose I always have to send Bind for non-utility statements.
